доклад по английскому языку для 5 класса на тему 9 мая

 There are several holidays in spring and one of them is May 9, known in Russia as Victory Day. Since its appearance this holiday has always been grandiosely celebrated. May 9th has a long history. Almost seventy years ago Germany surrendered to the Soviet Union. On this day the Great Patriotic Was in Russia came to an end. More than twenty-five million people died during four years. It goes without saying that the end of this fighting saved many more other lives. Thats why this day is so important for the nation. It is especially cherished by the war veterans. Some of them are still alive. Although they are rather old nowadays, they still eagerly participate in all celebratory events connected with the Victory Day. On this day adults dont work and children can skip the school. In many large cities local authorities organize military parades and fireworks. Veterans are highly regarded on this day. Younger generation prepares all sorts of performances for them, gives them flowers, postcards and lots of attention. Sometimes they receive honors and valuable presents from the mayor of the city. One of the symbols of this holiday is the Ribbon of Saint George. You can see people in street wearing it. Its featured even on the cars. Traditionally, concerts and other events are held in the central square or park. Those, who stay at home, watch old Soviet films about the Great Patriotic Wars. Thus, they commemorate soldiers who lost their lives in that cruel war. Those, who bravely fought but survived, were all given Red Star medals.

One of the most remarkable
public events in my country is
the Victory Day. It is
traditionally celebrated on
the 9th of May. This patriotic
holiday commemorates the
victory of the USSR over the
Nazi Germany. Every year in
honour of this day in all cities
across the country lots of
cheerful parades and
celebrations are held. Despite
the fact that the holiday is
celebrated in a flamboyant
way, May 9 is a sad day for
the majority of our
population. Many people
have lost their loved ones and
close relatives during this
ruthless war. From one хэнд
everyone is happy that the
country wasnt occupied by
the fascist invaders, from the
other хэнд everyone grieves
over their loss. On this day we
are grateful to our saviors, to
those who sacrificed their
lives for us. Thats why we try
to celebrate this day with
honours. Some part of
younger generation doesnt
understand the importance of
this event, which I think is
disrespectful. In my opinion,
the Victory Day is one of the
greatest holidays during the
year.
